Bill Clinton Ponders

(New York City) In recent remarks, former Prez Bill Clinton discussed theoretical future employment for him in Ireland or France.

The 66-year-old, who served two terms in the White House from 1993 to 2001, said his Irish heritage made him eligible to run for office there, while the fact he was born in Arkansas means he could enter a Gallic poll race.

“The only two countries I’m eligible to run for the leaderhsip (sic) position is if I move to Ireland and buy a house, I can run for president of Ireland because of my Irish heritage,” he told CNN.

“And because I was born in Arkansas, which is part of the Louisiana Purchase” — land which the United States bought from France in 1803 to settle French territorial claims — he could also run for office in France.

“Any person anywhere in the world that was born in a place that ever was a part of the French empire, if you move to, if you live in France for six months and speak French you can run for president of France,” said Clinton.

I'd suggest Clinton brush up on his French and catch a plane to Paris.
